B-91-4
Beloved Friend Sandy Spring 5th mo 12th 1813
Thomas Rotch
My situation is such that it has the possession of
my mind desiring to know what is proper for me to do as the
friend who owns the property where I live is desirous of having
the room that we occupy which renders it unpleasant to be so
fixed not being able to give him any information when I shall
very
give him the possession --- Likewise it is ^desirable to know what
we are to do for ourselves as the season has so fasr advanced that
if we do not get fixed somewhere pretty soon we shall lose
the benefit of a garden this year.
No w if thou wilt be so kind as tot conclude and send me
an decisive answer by the next mail thou wilt oblige thy
friend I offer my love to thee and thy wife mine joining
me therein I bid thee farewell Elisah Wm Hoag
